two hundred miles. It is an excursion
that
FLO II IDA VISITORS
never fall to take, and one that fully re
mvs tliein. be they seeking health, re
creation or knowledge of the country
Tho accommodations for taking the trip
are decidedly good. The line Charleston
steamers run lrom Jacksonville to Pa
lalka, seventy-live miles, wheio a change
must be made to a smaller boat, but
whoso accommodations are good for a
party of eighty or a hundred people.
This boat proceeds to Enterprise, the
practicable head ot navigation and the
end ol the mail line ; but tlioso with nn
exploring turn of iniiid and no objection
to cramped quarters, can take passage at
Enterprise on a little toy steamer that
resembles tho Ohio river tugs, and go on
and on in a cranked, narrow, devious
way until tliojT:each thy Indian river

t this point it Is only
SIX MILKS ACItO.SS
from one river to the other, and the dis
tance can be overcome and tho person
also in an ox or mule team. Hut doubt
less the fatigue is quickly totgottcn as
the admirer of nature sails upon the
bosom of the clear, placid stream that
many have pronounced to be unrivalled
la loveliness. But until 1 have taken in
the charms of the Indian river I shall
remain loyal to the St. John's.

It is everything that other rivers are not.
Deep and narrow at places, and then
suddenly spreading out into vast lakes.
Flowing tor miles in a wide, a straight
channel, and then darting around in such
crooked, tortuous paths that the points
of the compass are in inextricable con
fusion. Pertectly clear, but nothing visi
ble an inch below its blue-green surlace.
Its bosom at times so smooth that we
seem to be floating on glass, but a slight
breeze breaking it into angry, lighting.

For it means "string of pearls or,
"chain of lakes," according to the poeti
cal or prosaic nature of the interpreter
Tho width of the river as lar
up as Pal.itaka is from one to two mlh-a.
One hundred miles lrom Jacksonville the
river spreads out Into tho first lake of
any importance Lake George. This
is eight miles in width and eighteen in
length, Alter leaving this tho river sud-'
denly gets very narrow and very crooked.
Tho steamer looks like a monstrosity on
that little winding thread of water. It
seems impossible to turn the huge un
wieldy structure around those sharp
corners. 1 ho pilot works his wheel vig
orously, and bends all his energy to his
task, utterly uumindlul of tho anxious
eye cast In his direction. The captain Is
more at leisure, and says in answer to
the appeals from the ladics( men nrc all
stoics, of course) : "No, madam, there
is not the least danger ol our run

is reached. There nro only two towns
on the St. John's river, Jacksonville and
Pnlatka. The former lias ten thousand
and the latter one thousand resident in
habitants. The other places
along the river are called
'landings," and they consist ol an
orange grove, and iron one to six
l:oiis s. The most ot thun are owned
by wealthy Northerners who did not
get over the Florida few r in time to save
their pockets. The houses are in Miuple

and just as surely sot under the shade

Several patches of "shell land" were
pointed out to me as being quite produc

along the St. John's ought to be a big

are vast lorests of pine, cypress and oak.

Have you gotten me In your mind's eye
looking up with awe at a huge, towering
mass ol rocks': Well, I just cast my eye
on a little rise of white eand about us
high as our Ohio levee at high water.
There Is no grand scenery in Eastern
Florida, but to a northern person
there is the charm ot novelty
in the tall, straight pines, with their
bare, ungraceful trunks, and the round
tuft ot leaves at tho top moaning and
sighing in tho breeze. The eye docsiot
weary of watching the live ouk dip its

When I last wrote you the banks

and we feel deserted and painlully quiet.
The oranges, too, arc gone that U In

In Mure.li the orange trees were covered

The medicinal properties of sulphate ot
quinia are so generally and eU under
stood, that it is almost unnecessary to re
fer to them; but It may be ol interest to
our reuders to mention a lew I acts re
garding the various alkaloids other
man quinia which are found in the ciu
elioiui barks.
Our utteiitiou has been directed to this
subjec t by the present high price ot sul
phate ot quinia, which is quoted at il.'l'i
to $l.bU per ounce m this couuiry,
against SJ.'JO per ounce this lime last
year, unci 15 to 10 .shillings per ounce in
Kiij;land, against (i tabiiiiiigii 0 pence per
mice in t'lbruary, JS7G.
The advance in price Is due the scarc
ity and enhanced a ue ol ci ichuna hui ks
ami tlio explanation ol tins is the dillicul
ty of transporting the hark lrom the in
terior to the seaboard in Peru and other
South American states on account nt in
ternal disturbances, and these states are
the source of largo supplies of the bark.
It is well-known that the high prices
tend to diminish consumption, mid direct
attention to other articles that may lie
substituted for those commanding ex
treme figures ; and we are therefore not
surprised to learn that the cheapest alka
loids ol cinchona barks are now claiming
special notice.
lhu principal alkaloids, other than
iiiiuia, are quiiiidia, ciuclionidia and
cinchouia. As to the prices of these
preparations, we learn that sulphate ol
quimdiii Is selling at about onc-lhud the
price of sulphate ol quinia ; xulphato of
cinchonidia ubout one-seventh tho price,
and siilphnlool elnclioiiia about ouc-ci;h-teeuth.
As to their medicinal valip; we
ure inloruied that, In the opinion ol very
many physicians heio ami abroad, tin y
are regarded as fully equal to sulphate ol
quinia.
It is to tic ooMTvcu imii nicy are ot
tered by the American manufacturers in
ample quantity and at the low prices
above inillcaieii, so mat no Hunger oi a
failure to provide lor the necessities ol
of all classes of our people in this direc
tion need be apprehended
Now, as to their medicinal properties;
"In the year 1S00 the Madras Govern
ment appointed a medical commission
to test the respective ellleacy, in the
treatment of fever, ol quinine, quinidine,
cinclionlnc and ciiiclionidiuc. Of the sul
phates of these alkaloids a due supply.
especially prepared under Mr. Howard's
superintendence, was placed nt the dis
posal of the commission. From the re
port (lllue Honk-East India Cinchona
cultivation, 1870, pp. 1.10-172) it appears
that the number ot cases of paroxyinal
nialar.oits levers treated was 2,1,
namely; blf with quinine, Mil, willi
quinidine, M) Willi cinc.noiiine nnd I0;i
Willi cinehonid'me. Of llie-c 2 172 cases
were cured and 27 failed. The dillcn nec
in remedial value ol the tour alkaloid
as deduced lrom t)ie.,o experiments, may
bo thus 3tated:

"The Indian giveniini nt. acting on
the recommendation of Mr. Howard, I
licially advised Hrcember 10, 17:i) the
more tree use in Inlia of cinchona alka
loids other than quinine, and especially
of sulphate of cnulionidiiie, which is
procurable in nhunilaucc from red bark."
The matter Is attracting thu attention
of medical men generally in tins coun
try, and in view of this tact tlie surgeon
general has issunl the following circular
letter with refer-ine to the u. ot sul
phates ot clnchni a; alkaloids by medical
ofllocrs of the marine hospital service,
April 12, 177:
"To iwdtail olticrrl'ili 1 nik-1 stales iimriiie

chonidia and liin'homa sulphates, ot
which the two li'-t named arc believed to
be as clllcacious i- the quinia sulphate,
it is suggested tint the le-s costly salts be
aocorded a lair rial.
" You are requested to take Ibis matlcr
in consideration n prnparing your next
seini-ntinual requisition lor medical sup
plies, to be forwmled dnr ng the coining

The result ot tin- experience of our
army surgeons vill be looked lor with
interest. The si Iphaic of cinchonidia is
not, however, a w medicine to the fac
ulty in tliis coun.ry, and when it has
been accorded i fair trial it is said to

rado. To nil w,o have dreamed ol days
amid tin. matchless scenes, the towering
peaks and deep-mouthed gorges ot the
"A'pi ot America" tho Pocky moun
tain tourist will couio ns an awakening
to realization. It is a superb publication
In cyei-y particular, the letter press the
peril ctiou of typographical excellence,
the arrangement a model lor book prin
t"rs, while such distinguished urtlsis as
Monin, liisbing, Luugrldge, French and
Worrell furnished the drawings for tbo
illustrations which so profusely adorn
the piiircs. Tho views In tlio Muncos
and Mclilmo cnunns are subjects entirely
new and of rnro faciiiatlon, while the sin
gclc engraving of the 1'oyal (lorgo ol
the Arkansas is ten by fifteen Indies In
dimensions, The Tourist, nldo from Its
rich typography and highly artistic en
graviugs, is a work of rare interest, writ
ten, as it in, in nn ensy and graphic vein
throughout, Mr. J. (i. I'anglinrn, the
author, being nn old newspaper man,
and the treatment of tho Tourist more
ot the journalistic order than of the stereo
typed book writer i When It Is stated
that the publisher, Maor T. J. Ander.
"on, ex-mayor of Topeko. Kansas, sends
a specimen ropy Of tho AW;y Mountain
Tour'ut absolutely free to all requesting,
by letter or postal card, such favor, his
exrt.'ding liberality cannot but meet
wiin such iindlstfiiucd appreciation on
the part of tho publln nt largo ns tu re
quire the services of nulto a circle of
equally generous friends to assist him lu
opening and responding to Ids mall.
That all will receive who but nk (here
